Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Radiation fog forms close to the ground due to the radiative cooling effect. As the sun rises, the surface temperature will increase, and the fog will begin to dissipate from the bottom up. The ground will warm first, reducing the amount of moisture in contact with the air, causing the fog to thin at the lower levels. As the sun's energy reaches higher altitudes, the fog will continue to burn off until it disappears entirely.
